We have a win7 PC hooked to an LED TV.
I wanted to increase the font sizes to 150% but the task bar stays visible.
If text size set to 125%, then task bar stays invisible with full screen video.
Video is amazon prime video.

Any ideas?
Any other way to make it bigger?

I have exactly the same issue streaming some providers if I increased the font size. I have to get off the couch and sit near the TV and read what I think some of the small writing says.I have not found a workaround except down sizing to 720p instead of 1080p.

It is an undocumented feature.

on full screen video taskbar pops up and then goes away over and overIt is extremely annoying.
It just started doing this again yesterday,
Specifically I have seen it when using netflix and WMC.
The task bar will popup, interrupting the video momentarily, stay up for a few seconds, then go away restoring full screen video.
It will do this every couple minutes...

Preview Images at Native Size, not Full ScreenI'm using Windows Preview (from the contextual menu) to view image files. Pressing F11 results in a nice black background, but re-sizes the image larger than it's original, 100% size. It stretches the image to fill the monitor resolution. If you're viewing a 600px web image, this obviously looks...
